While new guidance from the PCAOB will help management cut auditing fees, companies are still on their own when it comes to trying to translate compliance and risk management into great performance
Linking a portion of an employee's compensation to performance is, in theory, a good idea. But it doesn't always measure up in practice if the company turns out to measuring someone else's performance
Cognos' newest planning and performance management software depends on real-time numbers to help finance and operations know when a plan is going off track and the reason why
FiREapps is slated to release a new version of its foreign exchange management tool in September that addresses a treasurer's need to forecast FX exposures months, and even years, out
Staying on the right side of a contract is a central governance issue for finance and legal at major corporations. Open Text now offers a tool that creates a contract and then helps you live up to it
When it comes to wellness programs, money talks. And now that the the rules governing cash incentives have been clarified, a growing number of companies are making offers few employees can refuse
Finance executives are starting to choose a new staffing model to plug the holes in their department's skill set: bringing highly skilled outsiders into the organization to work alongside their core staff on a project basis. The result? Better control
